Adopt Lejla T

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

🐾 Lejla – second chance for a gentle soul 🐾Lejla came to Anita's care in Kunágota in February after being found abandoned on a field near Dombegyház. She was microchipped – and indeed, her owners were traced. For three months, they had missed her and were initially relieved that she had been found… yet then they decided against taking her back. Afraid that she might cause "problems," they simply left Lejla behind. Another loss for Lejla – but at the same time, the beginning of her second chance. Lejla is a beautiful Huskymix, about 50 cm tall, born in September 2020. When she was found, she was in a shocking condition: weighing only 17.7 kg, she was severely underweight. But thanks to loving care, she has recovered and now has a healthy weight again. Her eye also immediately caught attention – one is larger than the other. The vet diagnosed glaucoma, likely caused by an earlier untreated inflammation. The good news: Currently, she experiences no pain and copes well with it. As part of her neutering procedure, her eye will be thoroughly examined again, and a second veterinary opinion will be sought. And Lejla herself? She is simply charming. Extremely people-oriented, clingy, and cuddly – she seeks human company, enjoys every pet, and just wants to belong. She gets along well with other dogs and also loves children very much. With bigger dogs, she sometimes shows some uncertainty, but remains gentle and friendly. Lejla is now ready for her new life. A life where she is no longer abandoned. A home she can love – and finally feel at ease in. Who will give this special Lejla T the security she so rightly deserves? We are happy to answer your questions.

🐾 Lejla – zweite Chance für eine sanfte Seele 🐾Lejla kam im Februar in Kunágota in Anitas Obhut, nachdem man sie auf einem Feld bei Dombegyház ausgesetzt gefunden hatte. Sie war gechipt – und tatsächlich konnten ihre Besitzer ausfindig gemacht werden. Drei Monate lang hatten sie sie vermisst und waren zunächst erleichtert, dass sie gefunden wurde… doch dann entschieden sie sich gegen sie. Aus Angst, sie könnte „Probleme machen“, ließen sie Lejla einfach zurück.Für Lejla ein weiterer Verlust – doch gleichzeitig der Beginn ihrer zweiten Chance.Lejla ist ein wunderschöner Huskymix, etwa 50 cm groß, geboren im September 2020. Als sie gefunden wurde, war sie in einem erschreckenden Zustand: Mit nur 17,7 kg war sie stark untergewichtig. Doch dank liebevoller Pflege hat sie sich erholt und inzwischen wieder ein gesundes Gewicht erreicht.Auch ihr Auge fiel sofort auf – eines ist größer als das andere. Beim Tierarzt wurde ein Glaukom festgestellt, vermutlich durch eine früher unbehandelte Entzündung verursacht. Die gute Nachricht: Aktuell hat sie keine Schmerzen und kommt gut damit zurecht. Im Rahmen ihrer Kastration wird ihr Auge nochmals gründlich untersucht, und eine zweite tierärztliche Meinung eingeholt.Und Lejla selbst? Sie ist einfach nur bezaubernd.Unglaublich menschenbezogen, anhänglich und verschmust – sie sucht die Nähe, genießt jede Streicheleinheit und möchte einfach nur dazugehören. Mit anderen Hunden versteht sie sich gut, auch Kinder mag sie sehr. Bei größeren Hunden zeigt sie sich manchmal etwas unsicher, bleibt dabei aber stets sanft und freundlich.Lejla steht nun bereit für ihr neues Leben. Ein Leben, in dem sie nicht mehr zurückgelassen wird. Ein Zuhause, das sie liebt – und in dem sie endlich ankommen darf.Wer schenkt dieser besonderen Hündin die Geborgenheit, die sie so sehr verdient? Gerne beantworten wir Ihre Fragen.

About Lejla T

What life with Lejla T looks like

Lejla T is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. in Nordwalde.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lejla T, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lejla T?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lejla T on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lejla T if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Lejla T already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Lejla T isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lejla T and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
